The carburetors regulate fuel/air mixtures so really it is how well they are tuned. As for the turbo, they generalize the percentage so the only way to tell is to take it to a performance shop and have them give you the numbers and they will have to tune whatever carburetors you are using to maximize its performance. They will also be able to fine tune the carburetors for you if you do not know how to do it. As for installation, if you do not know how to install them properly, I would have the performance shop do that for you as well.
